And I want to thank you for your effort. I have had thoughts along similar 
lines.
We discussed it at the admin meeting tonight, and here is what we decided.
This list will continue to exist, serving for general chatter.

We will have a "for active contributors only" list. A list that is by invite 
for posting. Basically
the criteria is contributing something to the project - be it creative team, 
developers, etc.
This is a low noise list for those who don't have time for general chatter.

And a third "announce" list. Very low noise (maybe a message or 3 a week). 

*I* will create these over the next couple of days and post here. Individuals 
will be
responsible for deciding what list they choose.

SourceForge's lists are designed for certain things. We were trying to use
them for other things. :-) It didn't fit. :-)

Thanks, everyone, for listening...
